Welcome back to Savvy Psychologist. Today we are doing something a little different and a blast from the past.

So I am Dr. Ellen Hendrickson, the first savvy psychologist. I hosted the show for many years and I always appreciated my time behind this mic and double trouble we are joined by

another familiar voice Dr. Jade Wu, the second savvy psychologist. Jade, welcome back. Hello,

it's so good to be back and always great to hang out with you, Ellen. And listeners probably

heard at the end of last week's episode

that Dr. Monica Johnson is retiring as the host of this show. She will be dearly missed, and we wish

her the best in her next chapter. While the QDT team works to fill the big shoes left behind,

Dr. Hendrickson and I wanted to come back and deliver some more quick and dirty

psychology knowledge. But first, Ellen, what have you been up to since you last hosted this show

way back in the day? It's been a long time. Yeah, no, it's funny that we have not just been

packed away in a QDT storage closet. We have both been up to a lot of stuff. So as we'll talk about

later, I've written a couple of books and I am currently mostly found on Substack. I have a

newsletter called How to Be Good to Yourself when you're hard on yourself. So that's where folks can

find me. But I'm so excited to talk to you.

What have you been up to? Oh, you know, had a couple of babies, moved up to New York, did a lot of

various cool projects, and I am now mostly found on LinkedIn. I've been posting a lot of good

tips there on mostly on sleep

for high performance. So excited to share some of those tips. But yes, I'm glad you mentioned

your book, Ellen, because I am currently reading How to Be Enough. That's your second book, right?

That's right. Yeah. And it's called How to Be Enough Self-ceptance for Self-Critics and Perfectionists.

That definitely rings a bell for me.

Just the title there alone just makes me feel all the feels.
